A North Carolina oral health coalition, in collaboration with multiple state partners, has developed an interactive map to help guide the public to sites where emergency dental services are available throughout the Tar Heel State both during and after the COVID-19 outbreak.

“During the COVID-19 pandemic, it is vitally important that accessible resources are provided to our state’s most vulnerable populations,” said Dr. Zachary Brian, director of the collaborative. “It is key to remember that access disparities are particularly highlighted during times of crises.”
